It was about Michael Foot.
Martyn Cornell, who was a subeditor on the Times around 1986.
He had to handle a story about Michael Foot being put in charge of a committee t
o look at nuclear disarmament in Europe, or something similar. The headline was
to be in largish type, but across a single column
always a problem for subs.
"I certainly wasn't going to get 'nuclear' or 'disarmament' or 'committee' to fi
t, so after a struggle I decided on 'Foot chairs arms body', then thought 'Foot
heads arms body' would at least give a laugh to the revise sub. To my astonishme
nt, the headline was printed, and a legend was born "

What is he doing exactly
permalinkparent
[ ]ChickenBaconPoutine 75 points 1 hour ago
Keeps camera in focus at all times, so he has to adjust constantly whenever the
distance between camera and singer changes.
permalinkparent
[ ]Fender2322 31 points 1 hour ago
Yep. Usually on film sets, your AC (assistant camera) is the focus puller and si
ts right next to the camera. They have these long bendy focus pullers that they
turn to focus the lens. This is why in camera rehearsals, you have your stand in
s stand in certain places to get camera focus down.
Nowadays we use laser readers quite a bit and get an exact distance rather than
eying it or using a tape measure.
In this scenario though, the guy has a wireless follow focus system because it w
ould be pretty much impossible to focus the camera by adjusting the physical len
s. The new fancy ones can do it all wirelessly with motors.
permalinkparent
[ ]labrys 7 points 1 hour ago
Why was he following the camera guy? I thought they'd be able to view remotely,

so he could just sit at the back watching on a screen in front of him. Is this j

permalinkparent
[ ]obviouslyducky 4 points 46 minutes ago
Maybe he needs to be there to judge the distance from the camera to the singer.

Blackmagic's new Micro Cinema camera is coming with a breakout port for direct R

I can also envisage setting up an Arduino where you can programme in sets of val

[ ]GauntletWizard 20 points 31 minutes ago
Actually, in gravity, all objects fall at the same rate (minus their air resista
nce). Both Usain Bolt and the Segway would accelerate downwards at 9.8 m/s2. Hum
ans have decently high air resistance when spread out, but not much when pointed
like an arrow towards the ground, and the Segway has a nice flat platform that
would catch the air. I think it depends on orientation - if both were 'standing'
straight up, the Segway would likely be slower.

Today I learned cazzo means something to do with dicks in Italian.
permalinkparent
[ ]NeokratosRed 6 points 32 minutes ago
Here's a handy guide I've made:
"Fuck" has many different translations in Italian.
1) Fuck = Cazzo
'Fuck' translates 'Cazzo':
When it's a standalone exclamation, like 'Damn it!'
EXAMPLE
-Fuck! = Cazzo!
When it follows Who/What/Where/When/Why/How
EXAMPLE
-Who the fuck...? = (Ma) chi cazzo...?
-What the fuck...? = (Ma) che cazzo...?
-Where the fuck...? = (Ma) dove cazzo...?
-When the fuck...? = (Ma) quando cazzo...?
-Why the fuck...? = (Ma) perch cazzo...?

-How the fuck...? = (Ma) come cazzo...?


Please note:
"#" The 'Ma' at the beginning can be omitted. Its for emphasis.
"#" The ellipsis means that you can add something to the sentence, like:
"Where the fuck are you?" = "Dove cazzo sei?"
2) Fuck = Scopare/Chiavare
'Fuck' translates 'Scopare/Chiavare/Other slang variations of the verb':
When it means 'to have sex with'
EXAMPLE
-I wanna fuck you = Ti voglio scopare/chiavare/trombare
-I fucked your mom last night = Ho scopato tua madre ieri sera
3) Fuck = Fanculo/Che si fotta/Che si fottano
'Fuck' translates 'Fanculo':
When it means 'Fuck this thing/these things in particular
EXAMPLE
-Fuck cancer = Fanculo il cancro/Che si fotta il cancro.
-Fuck wasps = Fanculo le vespe/Che si fottano le vespe
VARIATIONS:
As you can see, instead of 'Fanculo' you can also use:
-'Che si fotta' if it means fuck this thing.
-'Che si fottano' if it means fuck those things
4) Fuck = Vaffanculo
'Fuck' translates 'Vaffanculo':
When it means 'Fuck YOU'
EXAMPLE
-Fuck you! = Vaffanculo!
Fuck translates to -> Cazzo Scopare/Chiavare
Fanculo/Che si fotta/Che
si fottano
Vaffanculo
When it means ----->
'Fuck!' Or follows: Who/What/Where/When/Why/How 'To have
sex with'
'Fuck this thing/those things' 'Fuck you!'
Source: I'm Italian
Edit: A nice short video on the word FUCK

Doubt it. The organisers fault for having a segway there.
Why the fuck, would you put a cameraman on a segway, in a stadium full of obstac

Whoever from health and safety signed off on that shit should be fired.

guy riding the Segway.

The monorail is tracking Bolt as well. You can see from the black cables that th
e camera is in front of him running in the same direction he's walking and as so
on as he falls, it stops.
Also those are normally very low and make for a strange frog perspective viewing
angle and tilting it up into the audience means being blinded by the stadium li
ghts, so I can see why they would want another shoulder level camera near him.

Bolt is fine
The 10-times world champion did not appear badly injured by the incident, manage
d to see the funny side and was soon posing for pictures with his adoring crowd
again.
It didn t actually hit me in my Achilles, it hit me in my calf area, Bolt said. It s al
right, I will get over it. Never a doubt [for the relays], never a doubt. I am j
ust going to get it massaged, ice it up a bit and I should be fine.
Bolt added: The rumour I m trying to start right now is that Justin Gatlin paid him
off.

The guy on segway actually got hit on the head pretty hard, thats a heavy camera
that smacks him on the head. The accident was caused by the segway clipping the
camera rail, and exasperated exacerbated by the segways mechanics of just accel
erating forward into Bolt.

It was about Michael Foot.
Martyn Cornell, who was a subeditor on the Times around 1986.
He had to handle a story about Michael Foot being put in charge of a committee t
o look at nuclear disarmament in Europe, or something similar. The headline was
to be in largish type, but across a single column
always a problem for subs.
"I certainly wasn't going to get 'nuclear' or 'disarmament' or 'committee' to fi
t, so after a struggle I decided on 'Foot chairs arms body', then thought 'Foot
heads arms body' would at least give a laugh to the revise sub. To my astonishme
nt, the headline was printed, and a legend was born "

Keeps camera in focus at all times, so he has to adjust constantly whenever the

[ ]Fender2322 31 points 1 hour ago
Yep. Usually on film sets, your AC (assistant camera) is the focus puller and si
ts right next to the camera. They have these long bendy focus pullers that they
turn to focus the lens. This is why in camera rehearsals, you have your stand in
s stand in certain places to get camera focus down.
Nowadays we use laser readers quite a bit and get an exact distance rather than
eying it or using a tape measure.
In this scenario though, the guy has a wireless follow focus system because it w
ould be pretty much impossible to focus the camera by adjusting the physical len
s. The new fancy ones can do it all wirelessly with motors.
permalinkparent

Actually, in gravity, all objects fall at the same rate (minus their air resista
nce). Both Usain Bolt and the Segway would accelerate downwards at 9.8 m/s2. Hum
ans have decently high air resistance when spread out, but not much when pointed
like an arrow towards the ground, and the Segway has a nice flat platform that
would catch the air. I think it depends on orientation - if both were 'standing'
straight up, the Segway would likely be slower.

Today I learned cazzo means something to do with dicks in Italian.
permalinkparent
[ ]NeokratosRed 6 points 32 minutes ago
Here's a handy guide I've made:
"Fuck" has many different translations in Italian.
1) Fuck = Cazzo
'Fuck' translates 'Cazzo':
When it's a standalone exclamation, like 'Damn it!'
EXAMPLE
-Fuck! = Cazzo!
When it follows Who/What/Where/When/Why/How
EXAMPLE
-Who the fuck...? = (Ma) chi cazzo...?
-What the fuck...? = (Ma) che cazzo...?
-Where the fuck...? = (Ma) dove cazzo...?
-When the fuck...? = (Ma) quando cazzo...?
-Why the fuck...? = (Ma) perch cazzo...?
-How the fuck...? = (Ma) come cazzo...?
Please note:
"#" The 'Ma' at the beginning can be omitted. Its for emphasis.
"#" The ellipsis means that you can add something to the sentence, like:
"Where the fuck are you?" = "Dove cazzo sei?"
2) Fuck = Scopare/Chiavare
'Fuck' translates 'Scopare/Chiavare/Other slang variations of the verb':
When it means 'to have sex with'
EXAMPLE
-I wanna fuck you = Ti voglio scopare/chiavare/trombare
-I fucked your mom last night = Ho scopato tua madre ieri sera
3) Fuck = Fanculo/Che si fotta/Che si fottano
'Fuck' translates 'Fanculo':
When it means 'Fuck this thing/these things in particular
EXAMPLE
-Fuck cancer = Fanculo il cancro/Che si fotta il cancro.
-Fuck wasps = Fanculo le vespe/Che si fottano le vespe
VARIATIONS:
As you can see, instead of 'Fanculo' you can also use:

-'Che si fotta' if it means fuck this thing.


-'Che si fottano' if it means fuck those things
4) Fuck = Vaffanculo
'Fuck' translates 'Vaffanculo':
When it means 'Fuck YOU'
EXAMPLE
-Fuck you! = Vaffanculo!
Fuck translates to -> Cazzo Scopare/Chiavare

Doubt it. The organisers fault for having a segway there.
Why the fuck, would you put a cameraman on a segway, in a stadium full of obstac

g to film at the same time.
Whoever from health and safety signed off on that shit should be fired.
If Bolt was injured, I have no doubt he would have sued the organisers, not the
guy riding the Segway.

The monorail is tracking Bolt as well. You can see from the black cables that th
e camera is in front of him running in the same direction he's walking and as so
on as he falls, it stops.
Also those are normally very low and make for a strange frog perspective viewing
angle and tilting it up into the audience means being blinded by the stadium li
ghts, so I can see why they would want another shoulder level camera near him.

Bolt is fine
The 10-times world champion did not appear badly injured by the incident, manage
d to see the funny side and was soon posing for pictures with his adoring crowd
again.
It didn t actually hit me in my Achilles, it hit me in my calf area, Bolt said. It s al
right, I will get over it. Never a doubt [for the relays], never a doubt. I am j
ust going to get it massaged, ice it up a bit and I should be fine.
Bolt added: The rumour I m trying to start right now is that Justin Gatlin paid him
off.

The guy on segway actually got hit on the head pretty hard, thats a heavy camera
that smacks him on the head. The accident was caused by the segway clipping the
camera rail, and exasperated exacerbated by the segways mechanics of just accel

erating forward into Bolt.

Just gonna throw out there, it looks like the Segway malfunctioned or something,
because he was clearly leaning back to not move forward, and instead the thing

I don't understand. Segways are made so if you lean back it goes backwards. how
then did it have that runaway effect of going forward faster as he leaned back m

You can see in the other angle that he actually does lean sharply forward first(
from hitting a guard rail) and then falls backwards only as a result of it shoot

It was about Michael Foot.
Martyn Cornell, who was a subeditor on the Times around 1986.
He had to handle a story about Michael Foot being put in charge of a committee t
o look at nuclear disarmament in Europe, or something similar. The headline was
to be in largish type, but across a single column
always a problem for subs.
"I certainly wasn't going to get 'nuclear' or 'disarmament' or 'committee' to fi
t, so after a struggle I decided on 'Foot chairs arms body', then thought 'Foot
heads arms body' would at least give a laugh to the revise sub. To my astonishme

[ ]Fender2322 31 points 1 hour ago
Yep. Usually on film sets, your AC (assistant camera) is the focus puller and si
ts right next to the camera. They have these long bendy focus pullers that they
turn to focus the lens. This is why in camera rehearsals, you have your stand in
s stand in certain places to get camera focus down.
Nowadays we use laser readers quite a bit and get an exact distance rather than
eying it or using a tape measure.
In this scenario though, the guy has a wireless follow focus system because it w
ould be pretty much impossible to focus the camera by adjusting the physical len
s. The new fancy ones can do it all wirelessly with motors.

Actually, in gravity, all objects fall at the same rate (minus their air resista
nce). Both Usain Bolt and the Segway would accelerate downwards at 9.8 m/s2. Hum
ans have decently high air resistance when spread out, but not much when pointed
like an arrow towards the ground, and the Segway has a nice flat platform that
would catch the air. I think it depends on orientation - if both were 'standing'
straight up, the Segway would likely be slower.

'Fuck' translates 'Cazzo':
When it's a standalone exclamation, like 'Damn it!'
EXAMPLE
-Fuck! = Cazzo!
When it follows Who/What/Where/When/Why/How
EXAMPLE
-Who the fuck...? = (Ma) chi cazzo...?
-What the fuck...? = (Ma) che cazzo...?
-Where the fuck...? = (Ma) dove cazzo...?

Doubt it. The organisers fault for having a segway there.
Why the fuck, would you put a cameraman on a segway, in a stadium full of obstac

g to film at the same time.
Whoever from health and safety signed off on that shit should be fired.
If Bolt was injured, I have no doubt he would have sued the organisers, not the
guy riding the Segway.

The monorail is tracking Bolt as well. You can see from the black cables that th
e camera is in front of him running in the same direction he's walking and as so
on as he falls, it stops.
Also those are normally very low and make for a strange frog perspective viewing
angle and tilting it up into the audience means being blinded by the stadium li
ghts, so I can see why they would want another shoulder level camera near him.

Another redditor posted this comment with a vine that shows that the guy on the
segway was a camera operator and was focused on his shot when the left part of t
he segway hit the ledge and caused him to topple over. It was an accident. It's
one that could have been prevented, but at the very least it didn't go too badly
and he joked about it later :)

Bolt is fine
The 10-times world champion did not appear badly injured by the incident, manage
d to see the funny side and was soon posing for pictures with his adoring crowd
again.
It didn t actually hit me in my Achilles, it hit me in my calf area, Bolt said. It s al
right, I will get over it. Never a doubt [for the relays], never a doubt. I am j
ust going to get it massaged, ice it up a bit and I should be fine.
Bolt added: The rumour I m trying to start right now is that Justin Gatlin paid him
off.

The guy on segway actually got hit on the head pretty hard, thats a heavy camera
that smacks him on the head. The accident was caused by the segway clipping the
camera rail, and exasperated exacerbated by the segways mechanics of just accel

It was about Michael Foot.
Martyn Cornell, who was a subeditor on the Times around 1986.
He had to handle a story about Michael Foot being put in charge of a committee t
o look at nuclear disarmament in Europe, or something similar. The headline was
to be in largish type, but across a single column
always a problem for subs.
"I certainly wasn't going to get 'nuclear' or 'disarmament' or 'committee' to fi
t, so after a struggle I decided on 'Foot chairs arms body', then thought 'Foot
heads arms body' would at least give a laugh to the revise sub. To my astonishme

[ ]Fender2322 31 points 1 hour ago
Yep. Usually on film sets, your AC (assistant camera) is the focus puller and si
ts right next to the camera. They have these long bendy focus pullers that they
turn to focus the lens. This is why in camera rehearsals, you have your stand in
s stand in certain places to get camera focus down.
Nowadays we use laser readers quite a bit and get an exact distance rather than
eying it or using a tape measure.
In this scenario though, the guy has a wireless follow focus system because it w
ould be pretty much impossible to focus the camera by adjusting the physical len
s. The new fancy ones can do it all wirelessly with motors.

Actually, in gravity, all objects fall at the same rate (minus their air resista
nce). Both Usain Bolt and the Segway would accelerate downwards at 9.8 m/s2. Hum
ans have decently high air resistance when spread out, but not much when pointed

like an arrow towards the ground, and the Segway has a nice flat platform that
would catch the air. I think it depends on orientation - if both were 'standing'
straight up, the Segway would likely be slower.

Today I learned cazzo means something to do with dicks in Italian.
permalinkparent
[ ]NeokratosRed 6 points 32 minutes ago
Here's a handy guide I've made:
"Fuck" has many different translations in Italian.
1) Fuck = Cazzo
'Fuck' translates 'Cazzo':
When it's a standalone exclamation, like 'Damn it!'
EXAMPLE
-Fuck! = Cazzo!
When it follows Who/What/Where/When/Why/How
EXAMPLE
-Who the fuck...? = (Ma) chi cazzo...?
-What the fuck...? = (Ma) che cazzo...?

-Where the fuck...? = (Ma) dove cazzo...?


-When the fuck...? = (Ma) quando cazzo...?
-Why the fuck...? = (Ma) perch cazzo...?
-How the fuck...? = (Ma) come cazzo...?
Please note:
"#" The 'Ma' at the beginning can be omitted. Its for emphasis.
"#" The ellipsis means that you can add something to the sentence, like:
"Where the fuck are you?" = "Dove cazzo sei?"
2) Fuck = Scopare/Chiavare
'Fuck' translates 'Scopare/Chiavare/Other slang variations of the verb':
When it means 'to have sex with'
EXAMPLE
-I wanna fuck you = Ti voglio scopare/chiavare/trombare
-I fucked your mom last night = Ho scopato tua madre ieri sera
3) Fuck = Fanculo/Che si fotta/Che si fottano
'Fuck' translates 'Fanculo':
When it means 'Fuck this thing/these things in particular
EXAMPLE
-Fuck cancer = Fanculo il cancro/Che si fotta il cancro.
-Fuck wasps = Fanculo le vespe/Che si fottano le vespe
VARIATIONS:
As you can see, instead of 'Fanculo' you can also use:
-'Che si fotta' if it means fuck this thing.
-'Che si fottano' if it means fuck those things
4) Fuck = Vaffanculo
'Fuck' translates 'Vaffanculo':
When it means 'Fuck YOU'
EXAMPLE
-Fuck you! = Vaffanculo!
Fuck translates to -> Cazzo Scopare/Chiavare
Fanculo/Che si fotta/Che
si fottano
Vaffanculo
When it means ----->
'Fuck!' Or follows: Who/What/Where/When/Why/How 'To have
sex with'
'Fuck this thing/those things' 'Fuck you!'
Source: I'm Italian
Edit: A nice short video on the word FUCK

Doubt it. The organisers fault for having a segway there.
Why the fuck, would you put a cameraman on a segway, in a stadium full of obstac

g to film at the same time.
Whoever from health and safety signed off on that shit should be fired.
If Bolt was injured, I have no doubt he would have sued the organisers, not the
guy riding the Segway.

The monorail is tracking Bolt as well. You can see from the black cables that th
e camera is in front of him running in the same direction he's walking and as so
on as he falls, it stops.
Also those are normally very low and make for a strange frog perspective viewing
angle and tilting it up into the audience means being blinded by the stadium li
ghts, so I can see why they would want another shoulder level camera near him.

Another redditor posted this comment with a vine that shows that the guy on the
segway was a camera operator and was focused on his shot when the left part of t
he segway hit the ledge and caused him to topple over. It was an accident. It's
one that could have been prevented, but at the very least it didn't go too badly
and he joked about it later :)

Bolt is fine
The 10-times world champion did not appear badly injured by the incident, manage
d to see the funny side and was soon posing for pictures with his adoring crowd
again.
It didn t actually hit me in my Achilles, it hit me in my calf area, Bolt said. It s al
right, I will get over it. Never a doubt [for the relays], never a doubt. I am j
ust going to get it massaged, ice it up a bit and I should be fine.
Bolt added: The rumour I m trying to start right now is that Justin Gatlin paid him
off.

The guy on segway actually got hit on the head pretty hard, thats a heavy camera
that smacks him on the head. The accident was caused by the segway clipping the
camera rail, and exasperated exacerbated by the segways mechanics of just accel

It was about Michael Foot.
Martyn Cornell, who was a subeditor on the Times around 1986.
He had to handle a story about Michael Foot being put in charge of a committee t
o look at nuclear disarmament in Europe, or something similar. The headline was
to be in largish type, but across a single column
always a problem for subs.
"I certainly wasn't going to get 'nuclear' or 'disarmament' or 'committee' to fi
t, so after a struggle I decided on 'Foot chairs arms body', then thought 'Foot
heads arms body' would at least give a laugh to the revise sub. To my astonishme

[ ]Fender2322 31 points 1 hour ago
Yep. Usually on film sets, your AC (assistant camera) is the focus puller and si
ts right next to the camera. They have these long bendy focus pullers that they
turn to focus the lens. This is why in camera rehearsals, you have your stand in
s stand in certain places to get camera focus down.
Nowadays we use laser readers quite a bit and get an exact distance rather than
eying it or using a tape measure.
In this scenario though, the guy has a wireless follow focus system because it w
ould be pretty much impossible to focus the camera by adjusting the physical len
s. The new fancy ones can do it all wirelessly with motors.
permalinkparent

Actually, in gravity, all objects fall at the same rate (minus their air resista
nce). Both Usain Bolt and the Segway would accelerate downwards at 9.8 m/s2. Hum
ans have decently high air resistance when spread out, but not much when pointed
like an arrow towards the ground, and the Segway has a nice flat platform that
would catch the air. I think it depends on orientation - if both were 'standing'
straight up, the Segway would likely be slower.

Today I learned cazzo means something to do with dicks in Italian.
permalinkparent
[ ]NeokratosRed 6 points 32 minutes ago
Here's a handy guide I've made:
"Fuck" has many different translations in Italian.
1) Fuck = Cazzo
'Fuck' translates 'Cazzo':
When it's a standalone exclamation, like 'Damn it!'
EXAMPLE
-Fuck! = Cazzo!
When it follows Who/What/Where/When/Why/How
EXAMPLE
-Who the fuck...? = (Ma) chi cazzo...?
-What the fuck...? = (Ma) che cazzo...?
-Where the fuck...? = (Ma) dove cazzo...?
-When the fuck...? = (Ma) quando cazzo...?
-Why the fuck...? = (Ma) perch cazzo...?
-How the fuck...? = (Ma) come cazzo...?
Please note:
"#" The 'Ma' at the beginning can be omitted. Its for emphasis.
"#" The ellipsis means that you can add something to the sentence, like:
"Where the fuck are you?" = "Dove cazzo sei?"
2) Fuck = Scopare/Chiavare
'Fuck' translates 'Scopare/Chiavare/Other slang variations of the verb':
When it means 'to have sex with'
EXAMPLE
-I wanna fuck you = Ti voglio scopare/chiavare/trombare
-I fucked your mom last night = Ho scopato tua madre ieri sera
3) Fuck = Fanculo/Che si fotta/Che si fottano
'Fuck' translates 'Fanculo':
When it means 'Fuck this thing/these things in particular
EXAMPLE
-Fuck cancer = Fanculo il cancro/Che si fotta il cancro.

-Fuck wasps = Fanculo le vespe/Che si fottano le vespe


VARIATIONS:
As you can see, instead of 'Fanculo' you can also use:
-'Che si fotta' if it means fuck this thing.
-'Che si fottano' if it means fuck those things
4) Fuck = Vaffanculo
'Fuck' translates 'Vaffanculo':
When it means 'Fuck YOU'
EXAMPLE
-Fuck you! = Vaffanculo!
Fuck translates to -> Cazzo Scopare/Chiavare
Fanculo/Che si fotta/Che
si fottano
Vaffanculo
When it means ----->
'Fuck!' Or follows: Who/What/Where/When/Why/How 'To have
sex with'
'Fuck this thing/those things' 'Fuck you!'
Source: I'm Italian
Edit: A nice short video on the word FUCK

Why the fuck, would you put a cameraman on a segway, in a stadium full of obstac

Whoever from health and safety signed off on that shit should be fired.

guy riding the Segway.

The monorail is tracking Bolt as well. You can see from the black cables that th
e camera is in front of him running in the same direction he's walking and as so
on as he falls, it stops.
Also those are normally very low and make for a strange frog perspective viewing
angle and tilting it up into the audience means being blinded by the stadium li
ghts, so I can see why they would want another shoulder level camera near him.

Another redditor posted this comment with a vine that shows that the guy on the
segway was a camera operator and was focused on his shot when the left part of t
he segway hit the ledge and caused him to topple over. It was an accident. It's
one that could have been prevented, but at the very least it didn't go too badly
and he joked about it later :)

Bolt is fine
The 10-times world champion did not appear badly injured by the incident, manage
d to see the funny side and was soon posing for pictures with his adoring crowd
again.
It didn t actually hit me in my Achilles, it hit me in my calf area, Bolt said. It s al
right, I will get over it. Never a doubt [for the relays], never a doubt. I am j
ust going to get it massaged, ice it up a bit and I should be fine.
Bolt added: The rumour I m trying to start right now is that Justin Gatlin paid him
off.

The guy on segway actually got hit on the head pretty hard, thats a heavy camera
that smacks him on the head. The accident was caused by the segway clipping the
camera rail, and exasperated exacerbated by the segways mechanics of just accel
erating forward into Bolt.

It was about Michael Foot.

He had to handle a story about Michael Foot being put in charge of a committee t
o look at nuclear disarmament in Europe, or something similar. The headline was
to be in largish type, but across a single column
always a problem for subs.
"I certainly wasn't going to get 'nuclear' or 'disarmament' or 'committee' to fi
t, so after a struggle I decided on 'Foot chairs arms body', then thought 'Foot
heads arms body' would at least give a laugh to the revise sub. To my astonishme

[ ]Fender2322 31 points 1 hour ago
Yep. Usually on film sets, your AC (assistant camera) is the focus puller and si
ts right next to the camera. They have these long bendy focus pullers that they
turn to focus the lens. This is why in camera rehearsals, you have your stand in
s stand in certain places to get camera focus down.
Nowadays we use laser readers quite a bit and get an exact distance rather than
eying it or using a tape measure.
In this scenario though, the guy has a wireless follow focus system because it w
ould be pretty much impossible to focus the camera by adjusting the physical len
s. The new fancy ones can do it all wirelessly with motors.

Actually, in gravity, all objects fall at the same rate (minus their air resista
nce). Both Usain Bolt and the Segway would accelerate downwards at 9.8 m/s2. Hum
ans have decently high air resistance when spread out, but not much when pointed
like an arrow towards the ground, and the Segway has a nice flat platform that
would catch the air. I think it depends on orientation - if both were 'standing'
straight up, the Segway would likely be slower.

Today I learned cazzo means something to do with dicks in Italian.
permalinkparent
[ ]NeokratosRed 6 points 32 minutes ago
Here's a handy guide I've made:
"Fuck" has many different translations in Italian.
1) Fuck = Cazzo
'Fuck' translates 'Cazzo':
When it's a standalone exclamation, like 'Damn it!'
EXAMPLE
-Fuck! = Cazzo!
When it follows Who/What/Where/When/Why/How
EXAMPLE
-Who the fuck...? = (Ma) chi cazzo...?
-What the fuck...? = (Ma) che cazzo...?
-Where the fuck...? = (Ma) dove cazzo...?
-When the fuck...? = (Ma) quando cazzo...?
-Why the fuck...? = (Ma) perch cazzo...?
-How the fuck...? = (Ma) come cazzo...?
Please note:
"#" The 'Ma' at the beginning can be omitted. Its for emphasis.
"#" The ellipsis means that you can add something to the sentence, like:
"Where the fuck are you?" = "Dove cazzo sei?"
2) Fuck = Scopare/Chiavare
'Fuck' translates 'Scopare/Chiavare/Other slang variations of the verb':
When it means 'to have sex with'
EXAMPLE
-I wanna fuck you = Ti voglio scopare/chiavare/trombare
-I fucked your mom last night = Ho scopato tua madre ieri sera
3) Fuck = Fanculo/Che si fotta/Che si fottano
'Fuck' translates 'Fanculo':
When it means 'Fuck this thing/these things in particular
EXAMPLE
-Fuck cancer = Fanculo il cancro/Che si fotta il cancro.
-Fuck wasps = Fanculo le vespe/Che si fottano le vespe
VARIATIONS:
As you can see, instead of 'Fanculo' you can also use:
-'Che si fotta' if it means fuck this thing.
-'Che si fottano' if it means fuck those things
4) Fuck = Vaffanculo
'Fuck' translates 'Vaffanculo':
When it means 'Fuck YOU'
EXAMPLE
-Fuck you! = Vaffanculo!
Fuck translates to -> Cazzo Scopare/Chiavare
Fanculo/Che si fotta/Che
si fottano
Vaffanculo
When it means ----->
'Fuck!' Or follows: Who/What/Where/When/Why/How 'To have
sex with'
'Fuck this thing/those things' 'Fuck you!'
Source: I'm Italian
Edit: A nice short video on the word FUCK

Why the fuck, would you put a cameraman on a segway, in a stadium full of obstac

Whoever from health and safety signed off on that shit should be fired.

guy riding the Segway.

So they had a guy on the segway to do a tracking shot, next to a camera-"monorai
l" designed to do tracking shots?
permalinkparent
[ ]uhtt 3 points 35 minutes ago
The monorail is tracking Bolt as well. You can see from the black cables that th
e camera is in front of him running in the same direction he's walking and as so
on as he falls, it stops.
Also those are normally very low and make for a strange frog perspective viewing
angle and tilting it up into the audience means being blinded by the stadium li
ghts, so I can see why they would want another shoulder level camera near him.

one that could have been prevented, but at the very least it didn't go too badly
and he joked about it later :)

The 10-times world champion did not appear badly injured by the incident, manage
d to see the funny side and was soon posing for pictures with his adoring crowd
again.
It didn t actually hit me in my Achilles, it hit me in my calf area, Bolt said. It s al
right, I will get over it. Never a doubt [for the relays], never a doubt. I am j
ust going to get it massaged, ice it up a bit and I should be fine.
Bolt added: The rumour I m trying to start right now is that Justin Gatlin paid him
off.

The guy on segway actually got hit on the head pretty hard, thats a heavy camera
that smacks him on the head. The accident was caused by the segway clipping the
camera rail, and exasperated exacerbated by the segways mechanics of just accel
erating forward into Bolt.

to be in largish type, but across a single column
always a problem for subs.
"I certainly wasn't going to get 'nuclear' or 'disarmament' or 'committee' to fi

heads arms body' would at least give a laugh to the revise sub. To my astonishme

[ ]Fender2322 31 points 1 hour ago
Yep. Usually on film sets, your AC (assistant camera) is the focus puller and si
ts right next to the camera. They have these long bendy focus pullers that they
turn to focus the lens. This is why in camera rehearsals, you have your stand in
s stand in certain places to get camera focus down.
Nowadays we use laser readers quite a bit and get an exact distance rather than
eying it or using a tape measure.

In this scenario though, the guy has a wireless follow focus system because it w
ould be pretty much impossible to focus the camera by adjusting the physical len
s. The new fancy ones can do it all wirelessly with motors.
permalinkparent

ans have decently high air resistance when spread out, but not much when pointed
like an arrow towards the ground, and the Segway has a nice flat platform that
would catch the air. I think it depends on orientation - if both were 'standing'
straight up, the Segway would likely be slower.

I believe Bolt could win if he pulled himself into a more aerodynamic shape than
the Segway.

The distance would determine the winner...segways move at about 5.5m/s, which is
super slow over anything under 1000m, but almost certainly faster than Bolt cou

Today I learned cazzo means something to do with dicks in Italian.
permalinkparent
[ ]NeokratosRed 6 points 32 minutes ago
Here's a handy guide I've made:
"Fuck" has many different translations in Italian.
1) Fuck = Cazzo
'Fuck' translates 'Cazzo':
When it's a standalone exclamation, like 'Damn it!'
EXAMPLE
-Fuck! = Cazzo!
When it follows Who/What/Where/When/Why/How

EXAMPLE
-Who the fuck...? = (Ma) chi cazzo...?
-What the fuck...? = (Ma) che cazzo...?
-Where the fuck...? = (Ma) dove cazzo...?
-When the fuck...? = (Ma) quando cazzo...?
-Why the fuck...? = (Ma) perch cazzo...?
-How the fuck...? = (Ma) come cazzo...?
Please note:
"#" The 'Ma' at the beginning can be omitted. Its for emphasis.
"#" The ellipsis means that you can add something to the sentence, like:
"Where the fuck are you?" = "Dove cazzo sei?"
2) Fuck = Scopare/Chiavare
'Fuck' translates 'Scopare/Chiavare/Other slang variations of the verb':
When it means 'to have sex with'
EXAMPLE
-I wanna fuck you = Ti voglio scopare/chiavare/trombare
-I fucked your mom last night = Ho scopato tua madre ieri sera
3) Fuck = Fanculo/Che si fotta/Che si fottano
'Fuck' translates 'Fanculo':
When it means 'Fuck this thing/these things in particular
EXAMPLE
-Fuck cancer = Fanculo il cancro/Che si fotta il cancro.
-Fuck wasps = Fanculo le vespe/Che si fottano le vespe
VARIATIONS:
As you can see, instead of 'Fanculo' you can also use:
-'Che si fotta' if it means fuck this thing.
-'Che si fottano' if it means fuck those things
4) Fuck = Vaffanculo
'Fuck' translates 'Vaffanculo':
When it means 'Fuck YOU'
EXAMPLE
-Fuck you! = Vaffanculo!
Fuck translates to -> Cazzo Scopare/Chiavare
Fanculo/Che si fotta/Che
si fottano
Vaffanculo
When it means ----->
'Fuck!' Or follows: Who/What/Where/When/Why/How 'To have
sex with'
'Fuck this thing/those things' 'Fuck you!'
Source: I'm Italian
Edit: A nice short video on the word FUCK

So they had a guy on the segway to do a tracking shot, next to a camera-"monorai
l" designed to do tracking shots?
permalinkparent
[ ]uhtt 3 points 35 minutes ago
The monorail is tracking Bolt as well. You can see from the black cables that th
e camera is in front of him running in the same direction he's walking and as so
on as he falls, it stops.
Also those are normally very low and make for a strange frog perspective viewing
angle and tilting it up into the audience means being blinded by the stadium li
ghts, so I can see why they would want another shoulder level camera near him.

one that could have been prevented, but at the very least it didn't go too badly
and he joked about it later :)

The 10-times world champion did not appear badly injured by the incident, manage

It didn t actually hit me in my Achilles, it hit me in my calf area, Bolt said. It s al
right, I will get over it. Never a doubt [for the relays], never a doubt. I am j
ust going to get it massaged, ice it up a bit and I should be fine.
Bolt added: The rumour I m trying to start right now is that Justin Gatlin paid him
off.

The guy on segway actually got hit on the head pretty hard, thats a heavy camera
that smacks him on the head. The accident was caused by the segway clipping the
camera rail, and exasperated exacerbated by the segways mechanics of just accel
erating forward into Bolt.

He had to handle a story about Michael Foot being put in charge of a committee t

to be in largish type, but across a single column
always a problem for subs.
"I certainly wasn't going to get 'nuclear' or 'disarmament' or 'committee' to fi
t, so after a struggle I decided on 'Foot chairs arms body', then thought 'Foot
heads arms body' would at least give a laugh to the revise sub. To my astonishme

[ ]Fender2322 31 points 1 hour ago
Yep. Usually on film sets, your AC (assistant camera) is the focus puller and si
ts right next to the camera. They have these long bendy focus pullers that they
turn to focus the lens. This is why in camera rehearsals, you have your stand in
s stand in certain places to get camera focus down.
Nowadays we use laser readers quite a bit and get an exact distance rather than
eying it or using a tape measure.
In this scenario though, the guy has a wireless follow focus system because it w
ould be pretty much impossible to focus the camera by adjusting the physical len
s. The new fancy ones can do it all wirelessly with motors.
permalinkparent

[ ]phazeklanleedar 60 points 1 hour ago
Well if Usain Bolt can do 100m in like 9.something seconds then he is doing over
10m/s, and /u/Fraugheny says segways go at about 5.5m/s, so it wouldn't be a ve
ry even race

The segway would win if it was straight down. Off a cliff.
permalinkparent
[ ]GauntletWizard 20 points 31 minutes ago
Actually, in gravity, all objects fall at the same rate (minus their air resista
nce). Both Usain Bolt and the Segway would accelerate downwards at 9.8 m/s2. Hum
ans have decently high air resistance when spread out, but not much when pointed
like an arrow towards the ground, and the Segway has a nice flat platform that
would catch the air. I think it depends on orientation - if both were 'standing'
straight up, the Segway would likely be slower.

I believe Bolt could win if he pulled himself into a more aerodynamic shape than
the Segway.

The distance would determine the winner...segways move at about 5.5m/s, which is

super slow over anything under 1000m, but almost certainly faster than Bolt cou
ld go over 2/3k.

But a world class marathoner could take the Segway on a good day regardless, sli

Today I learned cazzo means something to do with dicks in Italian.
permalinkparent
[ ]NeokratosRed 6 points 32 minutes ago
Here's a handy guide I've made:
"Fuck" has many different translations in Italian.
1) Fuck = Cazzo
'Fuck' translates 'Cazzo':
When it's a standalone exclamation, like 'Damn it!'
EXAMPLE
-Fuck! = Cazzo!
When it follows Who/What/Where/When/Why/How
EXAMPLE
-Who the fuck...? = (Ma) chi cazzo...?
-What the fuck...? = (Ma) che cazzo...?
-Where the fuck...? = (Ma) dove cazzo...?
-When the fuck...? = (Ma) quando cazzo...?
-Why the fuck...? = (Ma) perch cazzo...?
-How the fuck...? = (Ma) come cazzo...?
Please note:
"#" The 'Ma' at the beginning can be omitted. Its for emphasis.
"#" The ellipsis means that you can add something to the sentence, like:
"Where the fuck are you?" = "Dove cazzo sei?"
2) Fuck = Scopare/Chiavare
'Fuck' translates 'Scopare/Chiavare/Other slang variations of the verb':
When it means 'to have sex with'
EXAMPLE
-I wanna fuck you = Ti voglio scopare/chiavare/trombare
-I fucked your mom last night = Ho scopato tua madre ieri sera
3) Fuck = Fanculo/Che si fotta/Che si fottano
'Fuck' translates 'Fanculo':

When it means 'Fuck this thing/these things in particular


EXAMPLE
-Fuck cancer = Fanculo il cancro/Che si fotta il cancro.
-Fuck wasps = Fanculo le vespe/Che si fottano le vespe
VARIATIONS:
As you can see, instead of 'Fanculo' you can also use:
-'Che si fotta' if it means fuck this thing.
-'Che si fottano' if it means fuck those things
4) Fuck = Vaffanculo
'Fuck' translates 'Vaffanculo':
When it means 'Fuck YOU'
EXAMPLE
-Fuck you! = Vaffanculo!
Fuck translates to -> Cazzo Scopare/Chiavare
Fanculo/Che si fotta/Che
si fottano
Vaffanculo
When it means ----->
'Fuck!' Or follows: Who/What/Where/When/Why/How 'To have
sex with'
'Fuck this thing/those things' 'Fuck you!'
Source: I'm Italian
Edit: A nice short video on the word FUCK

So they had a guy on the segway to do a tracking shot, next to a camera-"monorai
l" designed to do tracking shots?
permalinkparent
[ ]uhtt 3 points 35 minutes ago
The monorail is tracking Bolt as well. You can see from the black cables that th
e camera is in front of him running in the same direction he's walking and as so
on as he falls, it stops.
Also those are normally very low and make for a strange frog perspective viewing
angle and tilting it up into the audience means being blinded by the stadium li
ghts, so I can see why they would want another shoulder level camera near him.

It didn t actually hit me in my Achilles, it hit me in my calf area, Bolt said. It s al
right, I will get over it. Never a doubt [for the relays], never a doubt. I am j
ust going to get it massaged, ice it up a bit and I should be fine.
Bolt added: The rumour I m trying to start right now is that Justin Gatlin paid him
off.

The guy on segway actually got hit on the head pretty hard, thats a heavy camera
that smacks him on the head. The accident was caused by the segway clipping the
camera rail, and exasperated exacerbated by the segways mechanics of just accel
erating forward into Bolt.

to be in largish type, but across a single column
always a problem for subs.
"I certainly wasn't going to get 'nuclear' or 'disarmament' or 'committee' to fi

heads arms body' would at least give a laugh to the revise sub. To my astonishme

Keeps camera in focus at all times, so he has to adjust constantly whenever the

permalinkparent
[ ]Fender2322 31 points 1 hour ago
Yep. Usually on film sets, your AC (assistant camera) is the focus puller and si
ts right next to the camera. They have these long bendy focus pullers that they
turn to focus the lens. This is why in camera rehearsals, you have your stand in
s stand in certain places to get camera focus down.
Nowadays we use laser readers quite a bit and get an exact distance rather than
eying it or using a tape measure.
In this scenario though, the guy has a wireless follow focus system because it w
ould be pretty much impossible to focus the camera by adjusting the physical len
s. The new fancy ones can do it all wirelessly with motors.
permalinkparent

It happens all the time. they're becoming really common in TV and film productio

e too difficult to get with a standard dolly. However, they should have known in
this instance that it was risky operating it in a relatively tight space.

[ ]phazeklanleedar 60 points 1 hour ago
Well if Usain Bolt can do 100m in like 9.something seconds then he is doing over
10m/s, and /u/Fraugheny says segways go at about 5.5m/s, so it wouldn't be a ve
ry even race

The segway would win if it was straight down. Off a cliff.
permalinkparent
[ ]GauntletWizard 20 points 31 minutes ago
Actually, in gravity, all objects fall at the same rate (minus their air resista
nce). Both Usain Bolt and the Segway would accelerate downwards at 9.8 m/s2. Hum
ans have decently high air resistance when spread out, but not much when pointed
like an arrow towards the ground, and the Segway has a nice flat platform that
would catch the air. I think it depends on orientation - if both were 'standing'
straight up, the Segway would likely be slower.

The distance would determine the winner...segways move at about 5.5m/s, which is
super slow over anything under 1000m, but almost certainly faster than Bolt cou
ld go over 2/3k.

But a world class marathoner could take the Segway on a good day regardless, sli

Today I learned cazzo means something to do with dicks in Italian.
permalinkparent
[ ]NeokratosRed 6 points 32 minutes ago
Here's a handy guide I've made:
"Fuck" has many different translations in Italian.
1) Fuck = Cazzo
'Fuck' translates 'Cazzo':
When it's a standalone exclamation, like 'Damn it!'
EXAMPLE
-Fuck! = Cazzo!
When it follows Who/What/Where/When/Why/How
EXAMPLE
-Who the fuck...? = (Ma) chi cazzo...?
-What the fuck...? = (Ma) che cazzo...?
-Where the fuck...? = (Ma) dove cazzo...?
-When the fuck...? = (Ma) quando cazzo...?
-Why the fuck...? = (Ma) perch cazzo...?
-How the fuck...? = (Ma) come cazzo...?
Please note:
"#" The 'Ma' at the beginning can be omitted. Its for emphasis.
"#" The ellipsis means that you can add something to the sentence, like:
"Where the fuck are you?" = "Dove cazzo sei?"
2) Fuck = Scopare/Chiavare
'Fuck' translates 'Scopare/Chiavare/Other slang variations of the verb':
When it means 'to have sex with'
EXAMPLE
-I wanna fuck you = Ti voglio scopare/chiavare/trombare
-I fucked your mom last night = Ho scopato tua madre ieri sera
3) Fuck = Fanculo/Che si fotta/Che si fottano
'Fuck' translates 'Fanculo':
When it means 'Fuck this thing/these things in particular
EXAMPLE
-Fuck cancer = Fanculo il cancro/Che si fotta il cancro.
-Fuck wasps = Fanculo le vespe/Che si fottano le vespe
VARIATIONS:
As you can see, instead of 'Fanculo' you can also use:
-'Che si fotta' if it means fuck this thing.
-'Che si fottano' if it means fuck those things
4) Fuck = Vaffanculo
'Fuck' translates 'Vaffanculo':
When it means 'Fuck YOU'
EXAMPLE
-Fuck you! = Vaffanculo!
Fuck translates to -> Cazzo Scopare/Chiavare
Fanculo/Che si fotta/Che
si fottano
Vaffanculo
When it means ----->
'Fuck!' Or follows: Who/What/Where/When/Why/How 'To have
sex with'
'Fuck this thing/those things' 'Fuck you!'
Source: I'm Italian
Edit: A nice short video on the word FUCK

Indeed, I've seen camera people using segways for at least 10 years now and this
is literally the first accident I hear of where it wasn't just the cameramen fa
lling off the segway. Accidents happen, sure it sucks that he got hit but it was
very clearly an accident as you could see from the crazy amount of angles it wa
s filmed from..

So they had a guy on the segway to do a tracking shot, next to a camera-"monorai

permalinkparent
[ ]uhtt 3 points 35 minutes ago
The monorail is tracking Bolt as well. You can see from the black cables that th
e camera is in front of him running in the same direction he's walking and as so
on as he falls, it stops.
Also those are normally very low and make for a strange frog perspective viewing
angle and tilting it up into the audience means being blinded by the stadium li
ghts, so I can see why they would want another shoulder level camera near him.

It didn t actually hit me in my Achilles, it hit me in my calf area, Bolt said. It s al
right, I will get over it. Never a doubt [for the relays], never a doubt. I am j
ust going to get it massaged, ice it up a bit and I should be fine.
Bolt added: The rumour I m trying to start right now is that Justin Gatlin paid him
off.

The guy on segway actually got hit on the head pretty hard, thats a heavy camera
that smacks him on the head. The accident was caused by the segway clipping the
camera rail, and exasperated exacerbated by the segways mechanics of just accel
erating forward into Bolt.

It was about Michael Foot.

He had to handle a story about Michael Foot being put in charge of a committee t

to be in largish type, but across a single column
always a problem for subs.
"I certainly wasn't going to get 'nuclear' or 'disarmament' or 'committee' to fi
t, so after a struggle I decided on 'Foot chairs arms body', then thought 'Foot
heads arms body' would at least give a laugh to the revise sub. To my astonishme

[ ]Fender2322 31 points 1 hour ago
Yep. Usually on film sets, your AC (assistant camera) is the focus puller and si
ts right next to the camera. They have these long bendy focus pullers that they
turn to focus the lens. This is why in camera rehearsals, you have your stand in

s stand in certain places to get camera focus down.


Nowadays we use laser readers quite a bit and get an exact distance rather than
eying it or using a tape measure.
In this scenario though, the guy has a wireless follow focus system because it w
ould be pretty much impossible to focus the camera by adjusting the physical len
s. The new fancy ones can do it all wirelessly with motors.
permalinkparent

Well if Usain Bolt can do 100m in like 9.something seconds then he is doing over
10m/s, and /u/Fraugheny says segways go at about 5.5m/s, so it wouldn't be a ve
ry even race

The segway would win if it was straight down. Off a cliff.


permalinkparent
[ ]GauntletWizard 20 points 31 minutes ago
Actually, in gravity, all objects fall at the same rate (minus their air resista
nce). Both Usain Bolt and the Segway would accelerate downwards at 9.8 m/s2. Hum
ans have decently high air resistance when spread out, but not much when pointed
like an arrow towards the ground, and the Segway has a nice flat platform that
would catch the air. I think it depends on orientation - if both were 'standing'
straight up, the Segway would likely be slower.

The distance would determine the winner...segways move at about 5.5m/s, which is

Today I learned cazzo means something to do with dicks in Italian.
permalinkparent
[ ]NeokratosRed 6 points 32 minutes ago
Here's a handy guide I've made:
"Fuck" has many different translations in Italian.
1) Fuck = Cazzo
'Fuck' translates 'Cazzo':
When it's a standalone exclamation, like 'Damn it!'

EXAMPLE
-Fuck! = Cazzo!
When it follows Who/What/Where/When/Why/How
EXAMPLE
-Who the fuck...? = (Ma) chi cazzo...?
-What the fuck...? = (Ma) che cazzo...?
-Where the fuck...? = (Ma) dove cazzo...?
-When the fuck...? = (Ma) quando cazzo...?
-Why the fuck...? = (Ma) perch cazzo...?
-How the fuck...? = (Ma) come cazzo...?
Please note:
"#" The 'Ma' at the beginning can be omitted. Its for emphasis.
"#" The ellipsis means that you can add something to the sentence, like:
"Where the fuck are you?" = "Dove cazzo sei?"
2) Fuck = Scopare/Chiavare
'Fuck' translates 'Scopare/Chiavare/Other slang variations of the verb':
When it means 'to have sex with'
EXAMPLE
-I wanna fuck you = Ti voglio scopare/chiavare/trombare
-I fucked your mom last night = Ho scopato tua madre ieri sera
3) Fuck = Fanculo/Che si fotta/Che si fottano
'Fuck' translates 'Fanculo':
When it means 'Fuck this thing/these things in particular
EXAMPLE
-Fuck cancer = Fanculo il cancro/Che si fotta il cancro.
-Fuck wasps = Fanculo le vespe/Che si fottano le vespe
VARIATIONS:
As you can see, instead of 'Fanculo' you can also use:
-'Che si fotta' if it means fuck this thing.
-'Che si fottano' if it means fuck those things
4) Fuck = Vaffanculo
'Fuck' translates 'Vaffanculo':
When it means 'Fuck YOU'
EXAMPLE
-Fuck you! = Vaffanculo!
Fuck translates to -> Cazzo Scopare/Chiavare
Fanculo/Che si fotta/Che
si fottano
Vaffanculo
When it means ----->
'Fuck!' Or follows: Who/What/Where/When/Why/How 'To have
sex with'
'Fuck this thing/those things' 'Fuck you!'
Source: I'm Italian
Edit: A nice short video on the word FUCK

very clearly an accident as you could see from the crazy amount of angles it wa

permalinkparent
[ ]uhtt 3 points 35 minutes ago
The monorail is tracking Bolt as well. You can see from the black cables that th
e camera is in front of him running in the same direction he's walking and as so
on as he falls, it stops.

Also those are normally very low and make for a strange frog perspective viewing
angle and tilting it up into the audience means being blinded by the stadium li
ghts, so I can see why they would want another shoulder level camera near him.

It didn t actually hit me in my Achilles, it hit me in my calf area, Bolt said. It s al
right, I will get over it. Never a doubt [for the relays], never a doubt. I am j
ust going to get it massaged, ice it up a bit and I should be fine.
Bolt added: The rumour I m trying to start right now is that Justin Gatlin paid him
off.

raced him and the segway won, and I thought "man, those things much be getting c

The guy on segway actually got hit on the head pretty hard, thats a heavy camera
that smacks him on the head. The accident was caused by the segway clipping the
camera rail, and exasperated exacerbated by the segways mechanics of just accel
erating forward into Bolt.

It was about Michael Foot.

He had to handle a story about Michael Foot being put in charge of a committee t
o look at nuclear disarmament in Europe, or something similar. The headline was
to be in largish type, but across a single column
always a problem for subs.
"I certainly wasn't going to get 'nuclear' or 'disarmament' or 'committee' to fi
t, so after a struggle I decided on 'Foot chairs arms body', then thought 'Foot
heads arms body' would at least give a laugh to the revise sub. To my astonishme

turn to focus the lens. This is why in camera rehearsals, you have your stand in
s stand in certain places to get camera focus down.
Nowadays we use laser readers quite a bit and get an exact distance rather than
eying it or using a tape measure.
In this scenario though, the guy has a wireless follow focus system because it w
ould be pretty much impossible to focus the camera by adjusting the physical len
s. The new fancy ones can do it all wirelessly with motors.

Why was he following the camera guy? I thought they'd be able to view remotely,
so he could just sit at the back watching on a screen in front of him. Is this j
ust a case of old technology, or is it still done that way now?

Maybe he needs to be there to judge the distance from the camera to the singer.

Blackmagic's new Micro Cinema camera is coming with a breakout port for direct R

/C control... I am planning on building a rig where the focus puller has an R/C
control with a wireless view down the lens via a transmitter and monitor...
I can also envisage setting up an Arduino where you can programme in sets of val
ues and it will transition your focus between them. Exiting times :)

Well if Usain Bolt can do 100m in like 9.something seconds then he is doing over

The segway would win if it was straight down. Off a cliff.

[ ]GauntletWizard 20 points 31 minutes ago
Actually, in gravity, all objects fall at the same rate (minus their air resista
nce). Both Usain Bolt and the Segway would accelerate downwards at 9.8 m/s2. Hum
ans have decently high air resistance when spread out, but not much when pointed
like an arrow towards the ground, and the Segway has a nice flat platform that
would catch the air. I think it depends on orientation - if both were 'standing'
straight up, the Segway would likely be slower.

Today I learned cazzo means something to do with dicks in Italian.
permalinkparent
[ ]NeokratosRed 6 points 32 minutes ago
Here's a handy guide I've made:
"Fuck" has many different translations in Italian.
1) Fuck = Cazzo
'Fuck' translates 'Cazzo':
When it's a standalone exclamation, like 'Damn it!'
EXAMPLE
-Fuck! = Cazzo!
When it follows Who/What/Where/When/Why/How
EXAMPLE
-Who the fuck...? = (Ma) chi cazzo...?
-What the fuck...? = (Ma) che cazzo...?
-Where the fuck...? = (Ma) dove cazzo...?
-When the fuck...? = (Ma) quando cazzo...?
-Why the fuck...? = (Ma) perch cazzo...?
-How the fuck...? = (Ma) come cazzo...?
Please note:
"#" The 'Ma' at the beginning can be omitted. Its for emphasis.
"#" The ellipsis means that you can add something to the sentence, like:
"Where the fuck are you?" = "Dove cazzo sei?"
2) Fuck = Scopare/Chiavare
'Fuck' translates 'Scopare/Chiavare/Other slang variations of the verb':
When it means 'to have sex with'
EXAMPLE
-I wanna fuck you = Ti voglio scopare/chiavare/trombare

-I fucked your mom last night = Ho scopato tua madre ieri sera
3) Fuck = Fanculo/Che si fotta/Che si fottano
'Fuck' translates 'Fanculo':
When it means 'Fuck this thing/these things in particular
EXAMPLE
-Fuck cancer = Fanculo il cancro/Che si fotta il cancro.
-Fuck wasps = Fanculo le vespe/Che si fottano le vespe
VARIATIONS:
As you can see, instead of 'Fanculo' you can also use:
-'Che si fotta' if it means fuck this thing.
-'Che si fottano' if it means fuck those things
4) Fuck = Vaffanculo
'Fuck' translates 'Vaffanculo':
When it means 'Fuck YOU'
EXAMPLE
-Fuck you! = Vaffanculo!
Fuck translates to -> Cazzo Scopare/Chiavare
Fanculo/Che si fotta/Che
si fottano
Vaffanculo
When it means ----->
'Fuck!' Or follows: Who/What/Where/When/Why/How 'To have
sex with'
'Fuck this thing/those things' 'Fuck you!'
Source: I'm Italian
Edit: A nice short video on the word FUCK

Indeed, I've seen camera people using segways for at least 10 years now and this

very clearly an accident as you could see from the crazy amount of angles it wa

So they had a guy on the segway to do a tracking shot, next to a camera-"monorai

permalinkparent
[ ]uhtt 3 points 35 minutes ago
The monorail is tracking Bolt as well. You can see from the black cables that th
e camera is in front of him running in the same direction he's walking and as so
on as he falls, it stops.
Also those are normally very low and make for a strange frog perspective viewing
angle and tilting it up into the audience means being blinded by the stadium li
ghts, so I can see why they would want another shoulder level camera near him.

It didn t actually hit me in my Achilles, it hit me in my calf area, Bolt said. It s al
right, I will get over it. Never a doubt [for the relays], never a doubt. I am j
ust going to get it massaged, ice it up a bit and I should be fine.
Bolt added: The rumour I m trying to start right now is that Justin Gatlin paid him
off.

The guy on segway actually got hit on the head pretty hard, thats a heavy camera
that smacks him on the head. The accident was caused by the segway clipping the
camera rail, and exasperated exacerbated by the segways mechanics of just accel
erating forward into Bolt.

It was about Michael Foot.
Martyn Cornell, who was a subeditor on the Times around 1986.
He had to handle a story about Michael Foot being put in charge of a committee t
o look at nuclear disarmament in Europe, or something similar. The headline was
to be in largish type, but across a single column
always a problem for subs.
"I certainly wasn't going to get 'nuclear' or 'disarmament' or 'committee' to fi
t, so after a struggle I decided on 'Foot chairs arms body', then thought 'Foot
heads arms body' would at least give a laugh to the revise sub. To my astonishme

What is he doing exactly
permalinkparent
[ ]ChickenBaconPoutine 75 points 1 hour ago
Keeps camera in focus at all times, so he has to adjust constantly whenever the
distance between camera and singer changes.
permalinkparent
[ ]Fender2322 31 points 1 hour ago
Yep. Usually on film sets, your AC (assistant camera) is the focus puller and si
ts right next to the camera. They have these long bendy focus pullers that they
turn to focus the lens. This is why in camera rehearsals, you have your stand in
s stand in certain places to get camera focus down.
Nowadays we use laser readers quite a bit and get an exact distance rather than
eying it or using a tape measure.
In this scenario though, the guy has a wireless follow focus system because it w
ould be pretty much impossible to focus the camera by adjusting the physical len
s. The new fancy ones can do it all wirelessly with motors.
permalinkparent
[ ]labrys 7 points 1 hour ago
Why was he following the camera guy? I thought they'd be able to view remotely,
so he could just sit at the back watching on a screen in front of him. Is this j
ust a case of old technology, or is it still done that way now?

Maybe he needs to be there to judge the distance from the camera to the singer.

Blackmagic's new Micro Cinema camera is coming with a breakout port for direct R
/C control... I am planning on building a rig where the focus puller has an R/C
control with a wireless view down the lens via a transmitter and monitor...
I can also envisage setting up an Arduino where you can programme in sets of val
ues and it will transition your focus between them. Exiting times :)

Well if Usain Bolt can do 100m in like 9.something seconds then he is doing over

The segway would win if it was straight down. Off a cliff.

[ ]GauntletWizard 20 points 31 minutes ago
Actually, in gravity, all objects fall at the same rate (minus their air resista
nce). Both Usain Bolt and the Segway would accelerate downwards at 9.8 m/s2. Hum
ans have decently high air resistance when spread out, but not much when pointed
like an arrow towards the ground, and the Segway has a nice flat platform that
would catch the air. I think it depends on orientation - if both were 'standing'
straight up, the Segway would likely be slower.

Today I learned cazzo means something to do with dicks in Italian.
permalinkparent
[ ]NeokratosRed 6 points 32 minutes ago
Here's a handy guide I've made:
"Fuck" has many different translations in Italian.
1) Fuck = Cazzo
'Fuck' translates 'Cazzo':
When it's a standalone exclamation, like 'Damn it!'
EXAMPLE
-Fuck! = Cazzo!
When it follows Who/What/Where/When/Why/How
EXAMPLE
-Who the fuck...? = (Ma) chi cazzo...?
-What the fuck...? = (Ma) che cazzo...?
-Where the fuck...? = (Ma) dove cazzo...?
-When the fuck...? = (Ma) quando cazzo...?
-Why the fuck...? = (Ma) perch cazzo...?
-How the fuck...? = (Ma) come cazzo...?
Please note:
"#" The 'Ma' at the beginning can be omitted. Its for emphasis.
"#" The ellipsis means that you can add something to the sentence, like:
"Where the fuck are you?" = "Dove cazzo sei?"
2) Fuck = Scopare/Chiavare
'Fuck' translates 'Scopare/Chiavare/Other slang variations of the verb':
When it means 'to have sex with'
EXAMPLE
-I wanna fuck you = Ti voglio scopare/chiavare/trombare
-I fucked your mom last night = Ho scopato tua madre ieri sera
3) Fuck = Fanculo/Che si fotta/Che si fottano
'Fuck' translates 'Fanculo':
When it means 'Fuck this thing/these things in particular
EXAMPLE
-Fuck cancer = Fanculo il cancro/Che si fotta il cancro.
-Fuck wasps = Fanculo le vespe/Che si fottano le vespe
VARIATIONS:
As you can see, instead of 'Fanculo' you can also use:
-'Che si fotta' if it means fuck this thing.
-'Che si fottano' if it means fuck those things
4) Fuck = Vaffanculo
'Fuck' translates 'Vaffanculo':
When it means 'Fuck YOU'
EXAMPLE
-Fuck you! = Vaffanculo!
Fuck translates to -> Cazzo Scopare/Chiavare
Fanculo/Che si fotta/Che
si fottano
Vaffanculo
When it means ----->
'Fuck!' Or follows: Who/What/Where/When/Why/How 'To have

sex with'
'Fuck this thing/those things' 'Fuck you!'
Source: I'm Italian
Edit: A nice short video on the word FUCK

Whoever from health and safety signed off on that shit should be fired.
If Bolt was injured, I have no doubt he would have sued the organisers, not the
guy riding the Segway.

[ ]massiswicked 31 points 1 hour ago
That's a really good point. I've never used a segway, but holding a camera while
operating one seems over-complicated. Could it have been easier just to have a
dolly system or a golf cart?

Agreed. The whole segway/camera setup is a retarded idea, and an accident waitin

this incident.

permalinkparent
[ ]uhtt 3 points 35 minutes ago
The monorail is tracking Bolt as well. You can see from the black cables that th
e camera is in front of him running in the same direction he's walking and as so
on as he falls, it stops.
Also those are normally very low and make for a strange frog perspective viewing
angle and tilting it up into the audience means being blinded by the stadium li
ghts, so I can see why they would want another shoulder level camera near him.

It didn t actually hit me in my Achilles, it hit me in my calf area, Bolt said. It s al
right, I will get over it. Never a doubt [for the relays], never a doubt. I am j
ust going to get it massaged, ice it up a bit and I should be fine.
Bolt added: The rumour I m trying to start right now is that Justin Gatlin paid him

The guy on segway actually got hit on the head pretty hard, thats a heavy camera
that smacks him on the head. The accident was caused by the segway clipping the
camera rail, and exasperated exacerbated by the segways mechanics of just accel
erating forward into Bolt.

He had to handle a story about Michael Foot being put in charge of a committee t

to be in largish type, but across a single column
always a problem for subs.
"I certainly wasn't going to get 'nuclear' or 'disarmament' or 'committee' to fi

heads arms body' would at least give a laugh to the revise sub. To my astonishme

permalinkparent
[ ]ChickenBaconPoutine 75 points 1 hour ago
Keeps camera in focus at all times, so he has to adjust constantly whenever the
distance between camera and singer changes.
permalinkparent
[ ]Fender2322 31 points 1 hour ago

Yep. Usually on film sets, your AC (assistant camera) is the focus puller and si
ts right next to the camera. They have these long bendy focus pullers that they
turn to focus the lens. This is why in camera rehearsals, you have your stand in
s stand in certain places to get camera focus down.
Nowadays we use laser readers quite a bit and get an exact distance rather than
eying it or using a tape measure.
In this scenario though, the guy has a wireless follow focus system because it w
ould be pretty much impossible to focus the camera by adjusting the physical len
s. The new fancy ones can do it all wirelessly with motors.
permalinkparent
[ ]labrys 7 points 1 hour ago
Why was he following the camera guy? I thought they'd be able to view remotely,
so he could just sit at the back watching on a screen in front of him. Is this j

Maybe he needs to be there to judge the distance from the camera to the singer.

Blackmagic's new Micro Cinema camera is coming with a breakout port for direct R

control with a wireless view down the lens via a transmitter and monitor...
I can also envisage setting up an Arduino where you can programme in sets of val

Well if Usain Bolt can do 100m in like 9.something seconds then he is doing over

The segway would win if it was straight down. Off a cliff.

[ ]GauntletWizard 20 points 31 minutes ago
Actually, in gravity, all objects fall at the same rate (minus their air resista
nce). Both Usain Bolt and the Segway would accelerate downwards at 9.8 m/s2. Hum
ans have decently high air resistance when spread out, but not much when pointed
like an arrow towards the ground, and the Segway has a nice flat platform that
would catch the air. I think it depends on orientation - if both were 'standing'
straight up, the Segway would likely be slower.

Today I learned cazzo means something to do with dicks in Italian.
permalinkparent
[ ]NeokratosRed 6 points 32 minutes ago
Here's a handy guide I've made:
"Fuck" has many different translations in Italian.

1) Fuck = Cazzo
'Fuck' translates 'Cazzo':
When it's a standalone exclamation, like 'Damn it!'
EXAMPLE
-Fuck! = Cazzo!
When it follows Who/What/Where/When/Why/How
EXAMPLE
-Who the fuck...? = (Ma) chi cazzo...?
-What the fuck...? = (Ma) che cazzo...?
-Where the fuck...? = (Ma) dove cazzo...?
-When the fuck...? = (Ma) quando cazzo...?
-Why the fuck...? = (Ma) perch cazzo...?
-How the fuck...? = (Ma) come cazzo...?
Please note:
"#" The 'Ma' at the beginning can be omitted. Its for emphasis.
"#" The ellipsis means that you can add something to the sentence, like:
"Where the fuck are you?" = "Dove cazzo sei?"
2) Fuck = Scopare/Chiavare
'Fuck' translates 'Scopare/Chiavare/Other slang variations of the verb':
When it means 'to have sex with'
EXAMPLE
-I wanna fuck you = Ti voglio scopare/chiavare/trombare
-I fucked your mom last night = Ho scopato tua madre ieri sera
3) Fuck = Fanculo/Che si fotta/Che si fottano
'Fuck' translates 'Fanculo':
When it means 'Fuck this thing/these things in particular
EXAMPLE
-Fuck cancer = Fanculo il cancro/Che si fotta il cancro.
-Fuck wasps = Fanculo le vespe/Che si fottano le vespe
VARIATIONS:
As you can see, instead of 'Fanculo' you can also use:
-'Che si fotta' if it means fuck this thing.
-'Che si fottano' if it means fuck those things
4) Fuck = Vaffanculo
'Fuck' translates 'Vaffanculo':
When it means 'Fuck YOU'
EXAMPLE
-Fuck you! = Vaffanculo!
Fuck translates to -> Cazzo Scopare/Chiavare
Fanculo/Che si fotta/Che
si fottano
Vaffanculo
When it means ----->
'Fuck!' Or follows: Who/What/Where/When/Why/How 'To have
sex with'
'Fuck this thing/those things' 'Fuck you!'
Source: I'm Italian
Edit: A nice short video on the word FUCK

Doubt it. The organisers fault for having a segway there.
Why the fuck, would you put a cameraman on a segway, in a stadium full of obstac
les and people moving everywhere, and have him operate it by himself while tryin
g to film at the same time.
Whoever from health and safety signed off on that shit should be fired.
If Bolt was injured, I have no doubt he would have sued the organisers, not the
guy riding the Segway.

[ ]massiswicked 31 points 1 hour ago
That's a really good point. I've never used a segway, but holding a camera while
operating one seems over-complicated. Could it have been easier just to have a

permalinkparent
[ ]uhtt 3 points 35 minutes ago

The monorail is tracking Bolt as well. You can see from the black cables that th
e camera is in front of him running in the same direction he's walking and as so
on as he falls, it stops.
Also those are normally very low and make for a strange frog perspective viewing
angle and tilting it up into the audience means being blinded by the stadium li
ghts, so I can see why they would want another shoulder level camera near him.

Bolt added: The rumour I m trying to start right now is that Justin Gatlin paid him

The guy on segway actually got hit on the head pretty hard, thats a heavy camera
that smacks him on the head. The accident was caused by the segway clipping the
camera rail, and exasperated exacerbated by the segways mechanics of just accel
erating forward into Bolt.

He had to handle a story about Michael Foot being put in charge of a committee t
o look at nuclear disarmament in Europe, or something similar. The headline was
to be in largish type, but across a single column
always a problem for subs.
"I certainly wasn't going to get 'nuclear' or 'disarmament' or 'committee' to fi
t, so after a struggle I decided on 'Foot chairs arms body', then thought 'Foot
heads arms body' would at least give a laugh to the revise sub. To my astonishme

permalinkparent
[ ]ChickenBaconPoutine 75 points 1 hour ago
Keeps camera in focus at all times, so he has to adjust constantly whenever the
distance between camera and singer changes.
permalinkparent
[ ]Fender2322 31 points 1 hour ago
Yep. Usually on film sets, your AC (assistant camera) is the focus puller and si
ts right next to the camera. They have these long bendy focus pullers that they
turn to focus the lens. This is why in camera rehearsals, you have your stand in
s stand in certain places to get camera focus down.
Nowadays we use laser readers quite a bit and get an exact distance rather than
eying it or using a tape measure.
In this scenario though, the guy has a wireless follow focus system because it w
ould be pretty much impossible to focus the camera by adjusting the physical len
s. The new fancy ones can do it all wirelessly with motors.
permalinkparent
[ ]labrys 7 points 1 hour ago
Why was he following the camera guy? I thought they'd be able to view remotely,
so he could just sit at the back watching on a screen in front of him. Is this j

Maybe he needs to be there to judge the distance from the camera to the singer.

Blackmagic's new Micro Cinema camera is coming with a breakout port for direct R

control with a wireless view down the lens via a transmitter and monitor...
I can also envisage setting up an Arduino where you can programme in sets of val

Well if Usain Bolt can do 100m in like 9.something seconds then he is doing over

[ ]GauntletWizard 20 points 31 minutes ago
Actually, in gravity, all objects fall at the same rate (minus their air resista
nce). Both Usain Bolt and the Segway would accelerate downwards at 9.8 m/s2. Hum
ans have decently high air resistance when spread out, but not much when pointed
like an arrow towards the ground, and the Segway has a nice flat platform that
would catch the air. I think it depends on orientation - if both were 'standing'
straight up, the Segway would likely be slower.

Today I learned cazzo means something to do with dicks in Italian.
permalinkparent
[ ]NeokratosRed 6 points 32 minutes ago
Here's a handy guide I've made:
"Fuck" has many different translations in Italian.
1) Fuck = Cazzo
'Fuck' translates 'Cazzo':
When it's a standalone exclamation, like 'Damn it!'
EXAMPLE
-Fuck! = Cazzo!
When it follows Who/What/Where/When/Why/How
EXAMPLE
-Who the fuck...? = (Ma) chi cazzo...?
-What the fuck...? = (Ma) che cazzo...?
-Where the fuck...? = (Ma) dove cazzo...?
-When the fuck...? = (Ma) quando cazzo...?
-Why the fuck...? = (Ma) perch cazzo...?
-How the fuck...? = (Ma) come cazzo...?
Please note:
"#" The 'Ma' at the beginning can be omitted. Its for emphasis.
"#" The ellipsis means that you can add something to the sentence, like:
"Where the fuck are you?" = "Dove cazzo sei?"
2) Fuck = Scopare/Chiavare
'Fuck' translates 'Scopare/Chiavare/Other slang variations of the verb':

When it means 'to have sex with'


EXAMPLE
-I wanna fuck you = Ti voglio scopare/chiavare/trombare
-I fucked your mom last night = Ho scopato tua madre ieri sera
3) Fuck = Fanculo/Che si fotta/Che si fottano
'Fuck' translates 'Fanculo':
When it means 'Fuck this thing/these things in particular
EXAMPLE
-Fuck cancer = Fanculo il cancro/Che si fotta il cancro.
-Fuck wasps = Fanculo le vespe/Che si fottano le vespe
VARIATIONS:
As you can see, instead of 'Fanculo' you can also use:
-'Che si fotta' if it means fuck this thing.
-'Che si fottano' if it means fuck those things
4) Fuck = Vaffanculo
'Fuck' translates 'Vaffanculo':
When it means 'Fuck YOU'
EXAMPLE
-Fuck you! = Vaffanculo!
Fuck translates to -> Cazzo Scopare/Chiavare
Fanculo/Che si fotta/Che
si fottano
Vaffanculo
When it means ----->
'Fuck!' Or follows: Who/What/Where/When/Why/How 'To have
sex with'
'Fuck this thing/those things' 'Fuck you!'
Source: I'm Italian
Edit: A nice short video on the word FUCK

It's not uncommon to clip yourself with your spikes while running track. My gues

Doubt it. The organisers fault for having a segway there.
Why the fuck, would you put a cameraman on a segway, in a stadium full of obstac
les and people moving everywhere, and have him operate it by himself while tryin
g to film at the same time.
Whoever from health and safety signed off on that shit should be fired.
If Bolt was injured, I have no doubt he would have sued the organisers, not the
guy riding the Segway.
permalinkparent
[ ]massiswicked 31 points 1 hour ago
That's a really good point. I've never used a segway, but holding a camera while
operating one seems over-complicated. Could it have been easier just to have a
dolly system or a golf cart?

permalinkparent
[ ]uhtt 3 points 35 minutes ago
The monorail is tracking Bolt as well. You can see from the black cables that th
e camera is in front of him running in the same direction he's walking and as so
on as he falls, it stops.
Also those are normally very low and make for a strange frog perspective viewing
angle and tilting it up into the audience means being blinded by the stadium li
ghts, so I can see why they would want another shoulder level camera near him.

The guy on segway actually got hit on the head pretty hard, thats a heavy camera
that smacks him on the head. The accident was caused by the segway clipping the
camera rail, and exasperated exacerbated by the segways mechanics of just accel
erating forward into Bolt.

You can see in the other angle that he actually does lean sharply forward first(
